Answer:

$450

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the washer costs $51 more dollars than the dryer.

The washer costs x+51

The dryer costs x

So to simplify this we can do this equation:

2x+51=951

Substitute and simply the equation, and you should get this:

2x=900

x=450

Hope this helps! :)

$900

Step-by-step explanation:

if the washer and dryer combined equal 951 and the washer itself equals 51 then all you need to do is subtract to get the cost of the dryer alone.

One pipe can fill a tank in 20 minutes. A second pipe can fill the tank in 30 minutes. If the tank is empty, how long would be r

ioda

(It might also have helped immensely if you had been listening
when this was being explained in class.)

The first pipe fills 1/20 of the tank each minute.
The second pipe fills 1/30 of the tank each minute.

Operating together, the two pipes fill ( 1/20 + 1/30 ) of the tank each minute.

In order to add these fractions (or any fractions), you need a common denominator.
For these particular ones, ' 60 ' is a good choice.

( 1/20 + 1/30 ) = ( 3/60 + 2/60) = 5/60 = 1/12

The rate of work is 1/12 tankful per minute .

The most sensible choice for the time is 12 minutes.

R x T = W

( 1/12 tankful per minute ) x ( 12 minutes ) = 1 full tank
